They are just trying to get your dire up and have you click on the link below to respond, which of course is a fake ebay login page and now they would have your user id and password for ebay.
Ignore them

BOGUS!   NEVER click on any crap that says it's from ebay, always check your ebay account for legitimate messages first!   forward the bogus email to spoof@ebay.com  another good thing to do is get a decent spam filter program ,(spambully, etc) on outlook express if you highlight the message & click on "tool" you can block the sender, hotmail has a spam filter availble too, & if you're one of my customers (ATT/Sbcglobal.net) you can download anti popup & antispam for free) beware of bogus paypal emails too! if it's a real message, it will be in your accounts inbox at that accounts site. never use anylink given to enter your account number.  :veryangry:
